The STR to create a PDF are not how LO works.

If you save to ODF fine, that is fine. And if you save as, i.e. "export" directly to PDF--your os/DE controls the save dialog for the export.

Selection of the directory can be done in either case.

Issue was never confirmed nor valid--so a WORKSFORME BZ resolution is not correct.  Could be left UNCONFIRMED, but would be closed eventually as INVALID otherwise.
